CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- A heavy forklift with its specialized engine installer hold one of the main engines taken from space shuttle Discovery. The forklift is driving the engine from Orbiter Processing Facility-2 at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida to the center's Space Shuttle Main Engine Processing Facility. The transition and retirement processing is expected to help rocket designers build next-generation spacecraft and prepare the shuttle for display. Photo credit: NASA/Jim Grossmann
